Nephrology

Overview

Nephrologists specialize in caring for your kidneys — two very important organs that act as your body’s filters. When your kidneys are working well, they help regulate your blood pressure, keep your bones healthy, and maintain a healthy balance of electrolytes and acids (pH) in your body’s fluids. When they’re not working well, you may be referred to a nephrologist for specialized care.

The Portland Clinic’s nephrologist has years of experience, accreditation and continuing education in treating both primary kidney diseases and kidney problems related to other health conditions.
